I just got done traveling to Disney World with my family. I brought my GFX 50R and it was a fantastic travel camera. I couldn't have been happier. I was worried about battery life, but I never even had to change batteries once after a full day of shooting.
I was waiting for this. edit - Very informative about the differences between those two. It's almost like I had tested them myself. Thanks, James! And Nina is so pretty.
Im new to your channel. Cool comparison. Not sure why so many negative comments. Usually camera reviews are met with love. Anyway, good effort. I prefer the fuji look in your video. But I've tried both and both actually have excellent sharpness and colors.
Hasselblad still looks more 3D'esque/ at least for me. 19:49 - The nose transition makes it look more human, again in my eyes (fuji is too... synthetic like 2D) .
Great article! Clearly both are very good but Fuji generally overprocesses, especially on sharpness. I have the same problem on my xt-2's. The Hasselblad the winner for sure; more natural appearance zoomed in and better on noise, but not in color. Great image at 14:06! Thanking you.
Right from the first photo, the Fujifilm killed it. Much much nicer tones. Edit after watching the whole video: The Hasselblad looked really good too but the Fujifilm images were nicer.
i like what Hasselblad did with that camera a lot...... but I really cant wait for Fuji´s glass in 2021...... and there is no way to adapt that glass in the hasselblad....... that i know of.....
Guam Photography yeah , let’s wait and see , Fuji does have also very fast lenses ..... since I ain’t in a hurry I can only imagine things will get better with time
Same here, its really hard to find, but if you notice in LightRoom, if you try to apply a lens correction profile, it will tell you its already been applied in the raw file, so thats why you see at higher ISOs the pattern of swirls, thats from the lens profile, and sharpening is just so much that you'll see the swirl pattern more. If you use Capture One which everyone says Fujifilm files are much better in, when you import a high ISO file, sharpening is automatically reduced in Capture One depending on your ISO setting, for LightRoom sharpening stays at 40 no matter what ISO setting.
@@GuamPhotography Oh I think I see what you mean. The sharpening isn't embedded in the RAW files, but rather in the profiles which get automatically applied in Lr without the option to turn it off, whereas in Capture One you can. I may have to make the switch, just picked up a GFX 50R! Was looking for a good reason to and this might be it.
@@spoolindsm127 Its kinda hard to explain... the raw files are already sharp, yes, then LightRoom sharpens it more, so your right too :) but in Capture One, the program is very smart, depending on the ISO of the Fujifilm raw file, Capture One actually lowers down the sharpening value, just to make sure the file is less noisy, because the more sharpening you introduce in a high ISO file, the more noise you'll actually get, I hope this makes sense, the best files I have played with is my older camera the Pentax 645Z, those files were nice, but if you want files that are between the Fuji GFX and 645Z, the Hassy X1D would be the best balance, and you get such a slim MF camera.
@@GuamPhotography Yes that makes perfect sense, thanks for explaining :) I noticed this effect before, and it's quite nice that Capture One intelligently compensates for that. I agree the X1D is quite an amazing camera ergonomically for being medium format, so I will probably try that one too someday. The 50R was more within my budget, and the Pentax is way too bulky for me personally. Looking forward to seeing how I get along with Medium Format 👍
Great side by side comparison. One of the best on RU-vid. Nina is gorgeous and certainly make a huge factor in making this review special. As for the cameras, well, the X1D is a winner hands down. Fuji don’t have a chance hereS sorry.
@@Eliehbk Bravo, good choice. I don't have it yet, I had it on order with 2 lenses "XCD 80 and 120 Macro" plus the 45mm with some accessories but the Dollar crisis hit and I was unable to make the purchase. It's in my cart though :-)
That’s a good choice for lenses. I just have the 45p for now which I can recommend. I would like the 90 or 65mm as a second lens. Hope you get yours soon, can’t wait to see your pictures on the forum.
I did some research on it, others have had this problem, one person commented that if you turn the shutter button itll be working perfectly again. We have tried that and it works! I think maybe it got loose a bit over time, so sometimes it may take me more than one time when I press the shutter button to take the shot, when I first received it, it was working perfectly, so im thinking over time it gotten loose.
I think its because the Hasselblad X1D just has center weighted metering (also has spot), but it doesnt have evaluative or full screen metering, just the center, so if your model is wearing dark clothing itll be a brighter exposure. Also the post processing I did made it seem brighter.
Sorry but why do you use Provia to shoot model and compare the skin tones? If you want to compare the skin tones just use Negative Pro or Astia. The dynamic range is better on GFX files. Also at high ISO , don’t you see Hasselblad has terrible colour noise and banding ? You tell people Hasselblad is better at high ISO but it is very soft and it has colour noise! Fuji files are much sharper and keep the colors more accurate.
I just used Provia Standard for the color profile, but if you notice even if I left it at Adobe Color, the colors to my eyes is not accurate. I think Dynamic Range is good on both cameras, they use the same sensor, but then again some companies tweak the sensor differently. Yes Fuji files will be much sharper, because its sharpened in camera with the raw files, but you'll see the lens correction going on, for my preference I just prefer the X1D files and 645Z files over the fujifilm.
@@GuamPhotography Provia is not good for skin tones, it will give you more magenta. That's why you should use Pro Negative , Astia or even Classic Chrome. It is like shooting with Velvia 120 Film and judging skin tones on models. People choose Portra it is because it is good on skin tones. Hasselblad skin tones are more accurate? Don't you see her white Convers shoes looks very yellow and greenish... The sea looks grey instead of blue. Also for indoor shooting , her black jean short looks blue in Hasselblad shot and Fuji gives true black color. It is same for her hair too. In Hasselblad shot her hair look blueish... Sorry but I don't agree with you.
I dont understand how these great products goes in wrong hands... You compare the sharpness of 2 photos and the hasselblad taken with 1/60 time and fuji with 1/250 time and you say obviously fuji camera is more sharp... Video is not for photographers... This is amature attitude...
I love Fuji colors have gfx 100 but every color scheme can be adjusted in white balance custom setting/save, hassy also have japanese electronics inside the body its ust a electronic tool that brakedown by time can you imagine a 700mg gfx100 30bit TIFF file on a 4k monitor
